I am VERY tired of dealing with Sam Ezersky's far out idiolect, both in the Spelling Bee and now here. He does not know many perfectly normal words, and apparently thinks all sorts of arcana probably peculiar to certain NY circles are common. If this is what the crossword is degenerating to, I just won't bother.

The Times crossword is no longer a legitimate crossword puzzle -- instead, it has become a trivia contest. I'm sure there are those that like trivia contests, but I am not one.

If I want trivia, I'll go to a pub on trivia night. This was just boring.
